Huh maybe, gota stop commenting without my glasses. Tidal locking between a pair of co-orbiting astronomical bodies occurs when one of the objects reaches a state where there is no longer any net change in its rotation rate over the course of a complete orbit. I'm probably wrong as idk wtf I thought tidal lock ment.

Edit: don't read what i posted. I'm probably wrong i didn't understand tidal lock definition. Left it here because for shiggles.

Sadly no. The definition of a planet: It must orbit a star (in our cosmic neighborhood, the Sun). It must be big enough to have enough gravity to force it into a spherical shape. It must be big enough that its gravity cleared away any other objects of a similar size near its orbit around the Sun. The gravity requirement would make both objects to massive to be tidaly locked and in the goldilocks zone I believe.

Most fraternities at the university will be allowed to start having parties again in March 2022, if security guards are posted at stairs or hallways leading to bedrooms. (AP Photo/Reed Saxon, File)
